• Alternately skewer the bread and the sausage onto the rosemary branches.
• Grill skewers until bread is toasted and sausage is browned, about 7 to 10 minutes, brushing with olive oil if necessary. Serve immediately while warm or at room temperature.

GRILLED AND STUFFED VEAL CHOP

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to high.
• Cut a pocket in the veal chops and stuff with 1 thick slice of Fontina cheese and one thin slice of Prosciutto. Seal with a toothpick. Season the chops with the garlic pepper and salt. Place on the hot grill and sear, about 3 to 4 minutes. Rotate once in between to achieve grill marks. Then flip the chops and do the same on the other side.
• Remove from direct heat and put chops on the shelf of the barbecue. Baste with steak sauce and close lid. After about 5 minutes flip and baste the other side. Close lid for 4 or 5 minutes, or until the chops are fully cooked, when the internal temperature is 140 degrees F. Let rest for 3 to 5 minutes in a warm spot. Then serve immediately.

SPIEDINI (STUFFED VEAL ROLLS)

Steps:

• Prepare a medium hot charcoal fire, preheat a gas grill, or the broiler. Place grill rack or broiler pan 4 inches from heat.
• Place cutlets between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound to 1/4 inch thickness. (If you don't have a meat pounder or mallet just use an empty wine bottle).
• Cut veal into 3 x 2 inch pieces and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cut mozzarella into 1 x 1/2 inch thick sticks and place a piece of cheese across the center of each cutlet. Sprinkle with parsley and garlic, roll up each piece of veal from one of the short sides.
• Skewer rolls onto two metal or bamboo skewers (hold skewers in the same hand, parallel and about an inch apart). Rolls should barely be touching. Skewer all meat in this way.
• Brush rolls with olive oil. Sprinkle with bread crumbs, patting them so they stick. Grill/broil skewers, turning once, until meat is browned and the cheese is slightly melted (about 10 minutes).
• Slide rolls off skewers and onto a warm serving platter. Serve immediately.
